When to See a Urologist
It's important to see a urologist if you are experiencing any urological symptoms, such as:
- Changes in urination (frequency, urgency, flow)
- Pain in the back, side, or groin
- Blood in the urine
- Erectile dysfunction
- Testicular pain or swelling
Even if you are not experiencing any symptoms, regular checkups can help detect potential problems early.
